Description
The caricature of Hans Christian Andersen as a cow was given by the publisher Ernst Bojesen to the publisher Peter Nansen (The text P.N. fra (from) E.B. at the top) . The two started out as competing publishers but in 1903 merged their businesses into what is today known as the Gyldendal publishing house. The text at the bottom (in Danish) says Q Qvæg. At eie Qvæg er stort og godt. Selv være Qvæg, det er kun småt. Loosely translated it means Cattle: To own cattle is nice and fine. To be like cattle is not so fine. The quote was taken from one of H.C. Andersen's stories, ABC-Bogen from 1858. kb.dk

(Reusing this file)
This is a faithful photographic reproduction of a two-dimensional, public domain work of art. The work of art itself is in the public domain for the following reason:
Public domain

The author died in 1932, so this work is in the public domain in its country of origin and other countries and areas where the copyright term is the author's life plus 80 years or fewer.


This work is in the public domain in the United States because it was published (or registered with the U.S. Copyright Office) before January 1, 1929.

The official position taken by the Wikimedia Foundation is that "faithful reproductions of two-dimensional public domain works of art are public domain".
This photographic reproduction is therefore also considered to be in the public domain in the United States. In other jurisdictions, re-use of this content may be restricted; see Reuse of PD-Art photographs for details.
